I've been having an issue lately where our Epilog mini 24 occassionally makes a clunking sound as it moves down when engraving text. I've uploaded a video of the problem which you can view here (http://vimeo.com/56916564). You can hear the machine making the noise if you turn up the volume a bit. Sometimes the noise will sound more drastic especially when engraving smaller areas & in particular name tags. I have greased the rail regularly.
Could this be a worn belt or a problem with the carriage? When the machine is off and I move the carriage manually, it can stick at certain points as I pull it from top to bottom. Our laser will be 8 yrs old in a few days, not sure if something needs replacing now.
